Jim Schott joins EnSync as Chief Financial Officer. Jim has
a diverse background in accounting, finance, investor and analyst relations as
well as operations experience with energy leaders, including WEC Energy Group,

accounting activities within the company and will additionally be in charge of EnSync's
investor relations function.

"I'm very excited to be joining EnSync," said Jim
Schott. "EnSync's PPA development strategy creates exciting opportunities
for new applications of structured financings and a great opportunity for me to
apply my public company experience."

Rick Whisman joins EnSync as Vice President Sales. He has a
strong background in solar project development for Commercial and Industrial
("C&I") building customers, including working as a Manager of
Project Development at Powerlight Corporation, then Director of Commercial
Accounts for the Americas at Sunpower Corporation, following the Powerlight
acquisition. He has successfully penetrated and grown the solar business in the
C&I segment with several Fortune 500 companies. Most recently Rick founded
Sol Patch Resources, a California based solar project development company that
has more than a dozen active projects.

"Market penetration of renewables with storage is just
starting, and EnSync's product offerings and new product developments put
EnSync in the lead to achieve a major market share position," said Rick
Whisman. "I'm very pleased to have the opportunity to drive this effort at
EnSync."

EnSync has successfully closed a number of contracts for
distributed energy generation systems, services and components over the last 10
months. The contracts include grid-connected customer side of the meter systems
and power purchase agreements (PPAs), microgrid installations, engineering
services and successful integration of third-party storage products with
EnSync's intelligent energy management systems.

"We're very excited to have Jim and Rick join us as
part of the EnSync leadership team. They bring experience and competency that
will help us get to the next level, where we scale our operations and sales of
components, systems and power purchase agreements," said Brad Hansen, CEO
and President of EnSync Energy Systems. "Their joining the company is
validation that EnSync has the capability to attract key talent after a
successful re-making of the company into a leading provider of distributed
energy generation systems and services for commercial, industrial and microgrid
applications."

The majority of EnSync Energy Systems' recent contracts are
in the commercial and industrial building market segment. Greentech Media
estimates that by 2018, the market for combined energy storage and distributed
solar generation systems for commercial and industrial buildings will be more
than $600 million in the United States alone. EnSync has taken an early lead in
this growth market due to differentiated products and business model solutions.

"EnSync is well positioned to capitalize on the growth
of the C&I building market segment. We will continue to ensure the company
has the right talent and builds the sales channels and operational capability
to capitalize on the great opportunity ahead of us. Jim and Rick will be key to
this effort," said Hansen.
